What's UAPS? The UAP Science Ecosystem -- United States - Julia Mossbridge

The new President of the Society for Scientific Exploration has, with the help of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies (SCU), surveyed ten leading US UAP scientific study organizations and developed a comprehensive profile of the "ecosystem" they comprise. Dr. Julia Mossbridge interviewed representatives of the SCU, MUFON, CUFOS/UFODATA, NUFORC, NARCAP, UFODAP, The Galileo Project, Enigma Labs, and the AIAA UAP Community of Interest, plus SETI. (SETI is rather differently focused than the others here listed and rather outside their orbit, while UAPx was unable to be interviewed.) Group memberships range from several thousands to single individuals; most but not all are nonprofit; about half are decades-old, while some are just "spinning up." Group relationships with the general public vary widely, and each appears to occupy its own niche role in the overall ecosystem. These differences emerge in the separate interviews of up to 59 minutes and are charted and verbally summarized. Mossbridge has a standard short set of questions to elicit desired comparisons and contrasts, while allowing the dialogue and dialoguers to expand and sometimes delve into other topics to enhance the understanding of each group's particular character. The result is a fascinating, informative, and generally enjoyable learning experience. Intergroup cooperation emerges as highly desirable and in play, and some spokespersons participate in or collaborate with organizations other than the one they represent. At article's end, Mossbridge confers a superhero name upon each organization, explaining how each embodies particular strengths and contributions they bring to the UFO study field. For example, it's a "Banner Day" for CUFOS! (WM)
